Trying to get a good set of wet equipment going for my kart.

At the moment i dont use front hubs, i guessing in the wet these would be beneficial to create more front end grip? Short or long?

I was also told that thinner wheels are better, i.e. around 130mm on rear to bulge the tyre out more....is this true?

What differences would these actually make? Would they be worth the investment? and are there any other major parts other than the egg in the helmet? :-)

(My chassis is a venom sidewinder)

Thanks
JACK
